Everyone who works for a large organization has to wonder about the amount of expertise in it that never gets used. Someone else in the company may have had to solve the exact same problem you're working on, and you...74400@/home/corante/public_html/pipeline/Lowe's Laws of the Lab2010-04-12T06:18:47-05:00Cheese Dip and Hydrochloric Acidhttp://pipeline.corante.com/archives/2008/11/18/cheese_dip_and_hydrochloric_acid.php
One of the more wide-ranging on my “Lowe’s Laws of the Lab” list is this: The secret of success in synthetic chemistry is knowing what you can afford not to worry about. That’s because you have to have a cutoff...73617@/home/corante/public_html/pipeline/Lowe's Laws of the Lab2008-11-18T08:28:03-05:00A Law of the Lab: Yields and Variationshttp://pipeline.corante.com/archives/2006/08/02/a_law_of_the_lab_yields_and_variations.php
The "Law of the Lab" I alluded to the other day is: Yields go down faster and more unexpectedly than they go up. My synthetic organic readers will all know what I'm talking about here. We've all had the experience...63029@/home/corante/public_html/pipeline/Lowe's Laws of the Lab2006-08-02T20:54:02-05:00Yet Another Lawhttp://pipeline.corante.com/archives/2006/05/07/yet_another_law.php
It's been too long since I added another to my list of "Lowe's Laws of the Lab". They're something I came up with in graduate school, late one night in the lab. Looking back on them, I can tell I...57399@/home/corante/public_html/pipeline/Lowe's Laws of the Lab2006-05-07T20:26:30-05:00Another Law of the Labhttp://pipeline.corante.com/archives/2005/05/04/another_law_of_the_lab.php
This time, it's the libelous assertion that: You should only believe yields in Tetrahedron Letters papers if you also send off for everything you see advertised on late-night TV. Well, that's a little unfair. Not completely unfair - just a...11204@/home/corante/public_html/pipeline/Lowe's Laws of the Lab2005-05-04T21:49:04-05:00Think Twicehttp://pipeline.corante.com/archives/2005/03/16/think_twice.php
Time for another one of Lowe's Laws of the Lab. This time, it's some more advice for synthetic organic chemists, but it applies to many other situations as well: "Think Twice Before You Get Rid of the Old Route, or...11172@/home/corante/public_html/pipeline/Lowe's Laws of the Lab2005-03-16T21:24:40-05:00Law Number Onehttp://pipeline.corante.com/archives/2005/02/27/law_number_one.php
Three years ago (the Silurian era in blog time) I starting a series on "Lowe's Laws of the Lab." Time to bring them back, because I'd like to have them all in their own category over there on the right....11160@/home/corante/public_html/pipeline/Lowe's Laws of the Lab2005-02-27T17:07:00-05:00
